Hi! My name is Floriana, I’m 37 and originally from Italy. I have several years of experience working with children from ages 2 to 15 as a babysitter in both Italy and Ireland. I truly enjoy supporting families and creating a safe, positive, and engaging environment for kids and teenagers. In addition to childcare, I also offer household support such as tidying, laundry, dishes, light organization, running errands, and general home upkeep. I’m very organized, proactive, and comfortable helping families keep their homes running smoothly. I’m also an animal lover and happy to help with pet care — feeding, walks, playtime, and making sure pets feel comfortable and cared for while you’re busy or away. I consider myself reliable, punctual, and easy to work with. I value trust, clear communication, and building positive relationships with the families I support. I enjoy creating calm, organized spaces and helping wherever I can to make daily life a little easier.
“She was wonderful, came early and immediately started playing with both kids. She even took them to the pool and made me Mother's Day cards. I wish we lived closer so we could make her one of our regulars! I highly recommend her!!!”
Hi my name is Amaya, I am 20 years old and a college student majoring in psychology. I am patient and good with kids as an older sister myself. I also have experience in babysitting for family and friends as well as professional experience as an infant and toddler teacher at a preschool and as a private nanny.
“Amaya is very responsible. She is kind, loving, fun and a woman of her word (honest and has a high level of integrity). She has 2 younger sisters and while growing up has had plenty practice with being in charge. For many years, she’s also been responsible for watching her younger cousins, ranging in age from 3 months to 9 years old, often 4 at a time. Amaya does well with keeping documentation (of activities, meals, bedtimes, etc.) and is respectful of requests. Amaya is a great communicator and very trustworthy. If you choose to give Amaya an opportunity, you will not be disappointed!”
I have experience with play date supervision, overnight care, and pet care. I’m also extremely comfortable with children and very passionate about helping people. I have years of experience with my younger siblings. I love all things art related as well as sports. I would be more than grateful for an opportunity to help you and your family.

“Great with kids and amazing and sweet. Super reliable and professional. And goes the extra mile to help and assure safety. Highly recommend.”
I am a 31 year old Cardiology Fellow. I know you might be surprised, a doctor, huh ? As fellows we essentially make minimum wage and I have a lot of student loans so ! I worked as a nanny in medical school as well and loved it. I am excellent with both children and animals despite not choosing paediatrics or veterinary medicine as my profession; I am highly proficient in any emergent situation.
“Beani is the best babysitter we ever had! If you are lucky enough to hire Beani, consider yourself blessed. Not only is she an accomplished medical doctor from South Africa who speaks 3 languages (which means she is highly educated and interesting to talk to, as well very professional), she is also warm, fun, and engaging, and was very attuned to my daughter, who absolutely adored spending time with her.”

"We were incredibly grateful that Maya was able to help us out with a last-minute childcare emergency. She matched our 9-year-old's energy with arts & crafts, some quiet reading, and a walk around the neighborhood. We'd have Maya back in a heartbeat!"
